Preliminary Fiscal Impact Statement for Original Bill
Sponsor: Rep. Collamore of Pittsfield
Committee: Housing and Economic Development
Fiscal Note Required: Yes
This bill may increase the number of civil suits filed in the court system. The additional workload associated with the
minimal number of new cases filed in the court system does not require additional funding at this time. The collection
of additional filing fees will increase General Fund revenue by minor amounts.
